Hi
My textbook mentions
"We know that in an electrostatic situation (with all charges at rest) the electric
field at every point in the interior of a conducting material is zero. If E were
not zero, the excess charges would move"
Can this actually be true since charges can still be moving around at constant speeds...
When they say 'all charges' do they mean excess charges you have introduced to the neutral system?
